I can tell you why people watch Fox News....
I watch the news channels at night before I go to bed. They are all showing "re-runs" of their "news" shows from that day.
So last night I had Anderson Cooper 360 on CNN and OReilly on FNC.
OReilly drives me nuts when he starts pontificating...but last night he had a woman guest hosting for him.
Anyway...I tuned in a the start of the shows.
Anderson Coopers TOP STORY: ARod and his suspension from baseball for steroids.
I switched channels to FNC. Top story on OReilly: The closing of the consuls on the African continent. The guests were former CIA and NSA top people. They went in depth on the story.
At 20 minutes after the beginning of the show I switched back to see what CNN was doing.
Anderson was interviewing an ex-steroid dealer who was discussing how easy it was over the years to get baseball players some fucking testosterone.
And THAT is why people watch Fox News. Sometimes they are the only ones following a real story. Not all the time of course. But just saying. Instead of you going berserk CONSTANTLY about Fox News...maybe you should just actually watch it sometimes instead of cherry picking the occassional dumb shit that happens on any 24 hour a day cable network news show
